The nation's most accomplished group of head coaches will lead the Big 12 into its 18th season as the Conference has released its league schedule for the 2013-14 campaign.

Currently, a total of 84 conference games (93.3 percent) will be televised nationally on an ESPN network, CBS Sports or the regionally-syndicated Big 12 Network - which in combination with ESPN3, WatchESPN and ESPN Full Court assures broad national distribution. The contests are being carried as part of a multi-year agreement with ESPN that runs through the 2024-25 season. Of the league games not televised on a national or regional basis - most, if not all - will be selected at a later date for institutional broadcast packages.

Eight of the 10 league squads will tip off the conference schedule on Saturday, January 4. The Big 12 will also continue its spot in ESPN's traditional "Big Monday" lineup, beginning on January 13 when Kansas travels to Iowa State.

At least 100 games overall (conference and non-conference) will air annually. In men's basketball, the Big 12 was the first conference to be guaranteed three weekly telecast windows on ESPN or ESPN2, which each reach approximately 100 million homes, respectively.

The Phillips 66 Big 12 Men's Basketball Championship on March 12-15 will continue to be televised on a variety of ESPN platforms. The Championship will begin for the third straight year with two first-round games on Wednesday evening, followed by the quarterfinals, semifinals and title contest in successive days.

The Big 12 Network is entering its sixth year and is distributed on local television outlets throughout the conference’s geographic footprint. It is also carried on various regional sports networks across the country. Produced by ESPN Regional Television, most Big 12 Network telecasts will be available nationwide via WatchESPN, ESPN3 and ESPN Full Court.

The Big 12 is the only conference in the nation where every coach has guided a team to the NCAA Tournament, with six head coaches having guided a team to the Final Four during their careers. In addition, seven squads welcome incoming classes this season that rank among the top 40 of the ESPN.com recruiting rankings for the class of 2013.

Nine of the 10 teams in the Big 12 have been ranked in the top 25 since 2009. The league leads the nation in NBA draft picks over the past five years and also ranks second nationally with seven Consensus All-America First Team selections in the last seven seasons.
